List permissions for a site using Microsoft Graph API

Question

We use the graph API from Microsoft to get the details about site, drives, files, folder, etc.

The graph API works as expected and returns the results for those queries.

However, If I try to get the permissions using /sites/{site_id}/permissions endpoint I get:

{
    "@odata.context": "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/$metadata#sites('{site_id}')/permissions",
    "value": []
}

Are you trying it with Sites.FullControl.All permissions? Check this documentation: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/…. Let me know if it works for you. — Ganesh Sanap - MVP

I see. I was trying this with the Sites.Selected permission. — Devashish Pawar

I am yet to try this. I currently was having only the Sites.Selected access. I was trying to have a workaround to check the folder/file level permissions for the SharePoint App-Only (without delegated access). I found that this might not be possible with the current version of the SharePoint and even with the Graph APIs — Devashish Pawar

You are using correct Microsoft Graph endpoint:

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/{sitesId}/permissions

However, you will need below Graph permissions to list SharePoint site permissions:
